Revenge

Revenge attack with new album 'Behold.Total.Rejection'

Revenge have completed work on their highly anticipated fifth full-length. The Canadian black metal chaos extremists have chosen the title 'Behold.Total.Rejection' for this album, which will be released worldwide by Season Of Mist on the 13th of November.

'Behold.Total.Rejection' will include the tracks 'Desolation Insignia', 'Hate Nomad', 'Wolf Slave Protocol (Choose Your Side)', 'Scum Defection (Outsider Neutralized)', among others. Artwork and the complete official track list will be revealed in September.

"With 'Behold.Total.Rejection', Revenge maintain a lone-wolf approach despite joining Season Of Mist's venerable roster of bands. Although history has repeatedly proven that a transition to a higher profile label tends to yield a watering down of the content and intensity of most bands' music, in the case of Revenge, 'Behold.Total.Rejection' reflects the exact opposite effect. This album is a manifesto of rejection – rejection of the groundswell of mediocrity within the scene, rejection of compromise as a means of embracing of a wider audience, rejection of the dogma and strictures of religion and the trappings of the feeble social slave. Since the band's inception, each album has explored and refined the philosophical and ideological core that drives the band's music and imagery. Revenge extol the virtues of the uncompromising self at war with the banality of complacent existence and the common man: debased and docile, living on his knees feeding at the trough of inferiority.

"'Behold.Total.Rejection' is arguably the most fervent release in the band's catalogue since its earliest material. Those who have foolishly questioned if this unorthodox combination of band and record label would produce anything less than total confrontational, sonic annihilation need only to listen to the extremity of 'Behold.Total.Rejection' to recognize that Revenge has once again chosen to turn its back on all and forge ahead alone. No scene. No brotherhood. No remorse." - J. Campbell

Formed in 2000 by J. Read (Blood Revolt, ex-Conqueror), Revenge has become one of the most respected bands in the worldwide black metal underground.

Using militant imagery, and behind the force of savage live shows, the band has built a die-hard following amongst the extreme factions of the black and death metal scenes.
